| ==Wrestling career == | |||
| Before starting ''WrestleCrap'', Baer became involved in several local Indianapolis ] ]. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} According to Baer's self-published ] set, ''The Worst of RD Reynolds'', he first became involved in wrestling as a commentator for Jeff Cohen's Championship Wrestling of America (CWA) promotion. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| Baer caught the attention of CWA by perpetrating good-natured ]s with Casey Stephon, later known as masked wrestler "Trash Losagain" at CWA's expense which included leaving humorous messages on CWA's wrestling telephone hotline and having ] delivered to him at CWA shows. The pizza deliveries were a direct ] against CWA wrestler Superstar Junior Carr and CWA sponsor Jack's Pizza, as Carr owned several Jack's Pizza shops. Baer worked for CWA under his real name as "'''The Real Deal'''" '''Randy Baer''' and has since lampooned himself frequently for those performances; calling himself a "pizza-shilling ] dork." {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| According to Baer's DVD commentary on ''The Worst of RD Reynolds'', he was "]" due to a prank on one of CWA's top performers at the time, a wrestler named Mike Samples. Baer published a wrestling program with profiles of CWA wrestlers and asserted that Samples' previous career involved managing an ] stand. Samples was, apparently, not amused by the prank. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| ===Pro Wrestling International=== | |||
| Some time after being involved with CWA, Baer worked with another wrestling promotion in Indianapolis called Pro Wrestling International. Baer started out as a ] commentator and used the pseudonym '''RD Reynolds'''. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} He commentated along side friend Casey Stephon, who used the name "The Live Wire". Stephon also wrestled for PWI under a mask as "Trash Losagain" (Trash Lose-again). Baer made the transition from commentator to ], with the ] being that he was the nephew of ] and that he had come to take over PWI so that "Uncle Burt" could convert the arena in which PWI events were held into a ]. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| Baer, as RD Reynolds, managed Stephon, as Trash Losagain and a littany of other heels in a ] known as '''The Cannonballers'''. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} Baer and Stephon were also involved with ] the storylines for PWI which they now refer to as being terrible and making no sense. The two frequently mock themselves on the ''Worst of RD Reynolds'' commentary when they re-live "The Hat Angle" wherein they base a wrestling feud on Trash Losagain stealing the hat of PWI wrestler "Drill Sergeant Nelson". {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| Baer and Stephon booked their wrestling storylines in a comedic style that usually resulted in RD Reynolds getting his come-uppance in some humiliating fashion. Not a wrestler himself, Baer would book his character into matches against other non-wrestlers with very unconventional stipulations. Quite often the matches would have the "]" moniker even though the matches' stipulations were far from dangerous. Three such "Death Matches" that Baer makes known on the ''Worst of...'' DVD set are the "Rosalyn Bakery Death Match" (loser gets ]), the "] Death Match" (loser gets their mouth washed out with soap), and the "Shoe Shine Death Match" (loser must shine the shoes of the winner). {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| Baer & Stephon did share the stage regularly with a few wrestling personalities that went on to have successful careers as wrestlers on a national scale, such as ] (now wrestling in ] as "The Monster Abyss") and ]. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| ===NWA Indianapolis=== | |||
| Baer (as RD Reynolds) managed Madman Pondo in the co-main event against ] in the first and, to date, only show run under the "] Indianapolis" banner. The show was run and promoted by ]. Baer mentions on his DVD commentary that he found New Jack very scary to be around and that he (Baer) very intentionally stayed far away from New Jack once he came through the curtain. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} | |||
| ===Ohio Valley Wrestling=== | |||
| ] (OVW), a developmental territory for ] (WWE), which occasionally runs shows in Indiana using local talent, has utilized RD Reynolds on one occasion when he managed ] ] in a match against ]. Show ]med Reynolds during the course of the match and significantly injured him. Later, RD himself took responsibility, citing his own inexperience and lack of training as the reasons for the injury. <ref name="OVW"></ref> | |||
| ==Writing career== | |||
| Baer has written humorous wrestling-related books. One called ''WrestleCrap'' with an introduction by John Tenta. {{Fact|date=October 2007}} Reynolds also co-authored ''The Death of WCW'', with wrestling journalist Bryan Alvarez. A new book, ''The WrestleCrap Book of Lists'', is scheduled for a November 2007 release. He is also a featured columnist for British pro wrestling and MMA magazine '']''. <ref name="Fighting Spirit"></ref> | |||
